If you are doing the work, cam bearing tools.

Ok, I called FM this morning and updated my order to include the rocker studs and lifter cuffs. I agree with all the comments that it's a minimal cost for peace of mind. I am also searching for a killer deal on the Rekluse torque drive, I think it's a good option.

FuelMoto sells them. Ask them for a discount maybe, since you bought so much stuff...

Watching and learning! What gains to be had going to a 64 mm intake vs 55? I want an aluminum intake just not sure how much bigger I need. I haven’t priced out the TB yet maybe that will make up my mind.

From what I've gleaned from the FM dynocharts, a 64mm intake will get you another 5 ft lb or so (*RPM/5252 for HP).

Stock TB:


64mm TB:

Yea, I noticed that after I uploaded the images.

This would be 22X-E to 22X-E, just different mufflers.
